<p>When rankings are as close as Duke and Brown’s are, they are virtually meaningless (except for bragging rights w/ friends). When it comes down to it, Brown has a lower endowment, but more of a focus on its undergrads. So I’d say its better to go to Brown undergraduate, and Duke for graduate school.
Also, just so all you know, Gailforce and DeanaL are the same person. She likes to do this often to seem to have support for her posts.</p>
